Introduction
Case IH STX500 Four-Wheel Drive Tractor
The Case IH STX500 is a high-horsepower four-wheel drive tractor produced between 2004 and 2006. Engineered for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine is recognized for its heavy-duty construction and high-capacity performance capabilities.
Engine and Power
The tractor is powered by a Cummins QSX 15 engine, a 14.9-liter, six-cylinder turbocharged and aftercooled diesel unit. This liquid-cooled engine delivers 500 horsepower (372.9 kW), providing the necessary torque for demanding traction and heavy tillage applications.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Power is transferred through a full power shift transmission featuring 16 forward and 2 reverse gears. The system utilizes an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch for smooth operation. The drivetrain includes compound planetary final drives, supporting the tractor's four-wheel drive system to ensure consistent traction across various terrains.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system utilizes a pressure flow compensated (PFC) design, providing a total flow rate of 42 gpm (159.0 lpm) and an SCV flow of 35 gpm (132.5 lpm). For implement management, it features a Category IVN/III rear hitch with a lift capacity of 19,500 lbs (8,845 kg). An independent rear PTO is available as an option, operating at 1000 rpm with a 1.75-inch shaft.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The STX500 has a wheelbase of 154 inches (391 cm) and a base weight of 54,000 lbs (24,494 kg), ensuring stability during field operations. The operator environment is standardly equipped with the Surveyor Cab, designed to provide visibility and ergonomic control for long periods of operation.
Conclusion
